Muscle Milk

Muscle Milk by CytoSport is a casein and whey protein powder that can be taken either before or after your workout or simply as a meal replacement.  One serving of Muscle Milk (2 scoops - 70g) provides 32g of protein with 16g of carbohydrates and 12g of fat.  Each serving is 300 calories (assuming the powder is mixed with water instead of milk).

The label of this product makes a variety of claims about the activity of the ingredients and their effectiveness in helping the user trim body fat and build lean muscle mass.  The label is basically a commercial for the product itself.

Despite the volume of information found on the label of Muscle Milk, the product inside the jar is quite honestly one of the better-tasting protien products I've ever tasted.  The consistency isn't too thin nor does it almost require a spoon in order to be consumed.  With 24 flavors to choose from, there is certainly a flavor for every palate out there.  The chocolate flavor is very similar in flavor to a restaurant-quality milk shake.

Overall, I have to recommend this product as both a pre- and post-workout meal choice based on the quality of proteins it contains and the very pleasing consistency and flavor of the drink.
